He's back. After being wooed by at least five of the nine Canadian Football League teams, Weston Dressler has decided to come home. The Saskatchewan RoughRiders made it official this morning saying simply that the team had agreed to terms with the outstanding wide receiver. The Ottawa RedBlacks appeared to be the most aggressive apparently putting an offer of $250k on the table. The Calgary Stampeders also are reported to have made a late offer in a bid to lure Dressler to Cowtown. Dressler became a free agent when the Riders released him to allow Dressler to pursue his dream of playing in the National Football League. He signed with the Kansas City Chiefs but really was not given a chance to make the team. The Chiefs brought in a plethora of wide receivers. Dressler dressed for three exhibition games but was only able to touch the ball once. He returned a kick off 19 yards.
So now Dressler is back in Regina, reunited with quarterback Darian Durant giving DD an impressive array of targets. Add in Ryan Getzlaf, Rob Bagg, Taj Smith, Ryan Smith, Brett Swain and it looks pretty good for the green and white. One of the afore mentioned players may have to go to make room on the roster and under the cap space for Dressler. Fans welcome Dressler back with open arms and many businesses got into the act offering Dressler all kinds of products if he would sign in Saskatchewan including free blizzards from Dairy Queen. No word from DQ on whether those were mini blizzards or larger.
